Convicted murderer Ronald Smith is escorted in for his May 2012 clemency hearing at Powell County District Court in Deer Lodge. Smith, of Red Deer, Alberta, was asking board members to recommend that the governor commute his death sentence to life in prison without the possibility of parole. His lawyers want them to look beyond the horrific murders of two Browning cousins in 1983 in Flathead County.
